Harold Camping tells people on his broadcasts that the Christian Bible is not a mixture of borrowed heathen text imbedded with text that also came from the Word of GOD. I can not let such statements go unchallenged. Therefore; I will be making it my personal business to expose the ignorance of Camping and his ministry and bible school concerning this single issue. I will from now on be listening to his radio broadcasts and debunk any statements or teachings that are false which comes out of Camping's ministry on any of his radio programs I come across. This I will do, through my own personal knowledge, and also through other people whom I do not know personally, or is not connected with me in any way, who have also spent a lifetime of study on this topic. Camping says that he does not look at any material that is outside of the Bible. He believes that all books, (such books that may uncover actual history) is utter nonsense. The reason Camping makes this statement is because he must spend very little time or none at all, given his statement, about reading books of historical value so that he has an excuse, a poor one at that, I may add, to remain totally ignorant about the truth that is being revealed. In that way, Camping can excuse himself of ignorance and he do not have to explain to his congregation or to people attending his bible school why there are so many contradictions, lies and heathen ideas and text that had been incorporated into the Bible that Camping bases his whole "faith" upon. Check out these pages from time to time and gain some insight into Campings thinking.

My first encounter with Harold Camping teaching on his radio broadcast was on the topic of the exodus of the Jews from Egypt. The well known Moses story found in the Old Testament. I had touched upon this topic on this web site some time ago. Look at, "Things to ponder upon", page 7 or the web page, "The Bible" which is listed on our Archive Page. These pages have some mention on this topic. Camping stated matter-of-fact that all what was written in the Bible was factual because it is the "Word of GOD". So what we read in the Bible has to be true. Any people who say otherwise are ignorant of the Bible. Well, Let us see who is the one that is ignorant Mr. Camping. I had just happen to come across a new book that had come into our public library that was donated. I took it out and read through it very carefully. The book title is; Exodus, the true story, by Eian Wilson. Published in 1985 by Harper and Row. San Francisco, USA. ISBN # 0062509691. Much of what is contained in this book pretty well confirms what I have been saying all along. For those people who are interested in the truth, see if your public library has a copy of this book, or if they can get it from another library on loan. If you can not find or get this book at your local library, you can order it from the publishing house. I have no idea how much this book costs retail. This book will reveal some interesting insights and the truth behind the story of Moses in the Bible and the era in which actual history is based upon.

Note; I will use secular sources to expose or debunk many of Camping’s false teachings whenever I can so that it will not reflect any religious bias when looking at actual history. It has been my experience in the past that the vast majority of Christian sources tend to lie or at least slant or stretch the truth to such a high degree that it becomes totally invalid.

I have heard Camping's teaching to his class on the Noah’s Ark story that is written in the Old Testament of the Bible. Camping claims that this story is totally factual and true because it came directly from GOD through the Bible. Here is the truth where this Noah’s Ark story had originated from. The Noah’s Ark story in Genesis is about an apocalyptic flood that was plagiarized from a mythologized Mesopotamian flood story that predated the writing of Genesis by thousands of years. I have written on this topic in various places on our web site. Take a look at "From my Journal" listed on the Main Index Page. Go to page 5 on the Journal index page. Scroll down to about halfway down the page. Another web page, "The Bible" which is listed on our Archive Page will give you more insight to the flood story. This is what Encyclopedia Britannica, has to say on the subject. "In the traditions of most ancient civilizations there can be found a legend concerning a flood of such enormous proportions that it is believed to have covered the whole Earth. Such was the destructive force of this flood that few land animals and plants survived it. Noah and the Ark as recounted in Genesis, is in the first book of the Bible. The account of Noah is neither the only nor the oldest of such legend. Legends of a flood can be found in the folklore of the Middle East, India, China, Australia, southern Asia, the islands of the Pacific, Europe, and the Americas. But the best-known flood legend, on which the story of Noah is based upon, has its origins among the peoples of ancient Mesopotamia in the Tigris-Euphrates river valley. The Mesopotamian Flood Story is located where the Babylonian plain is very fertile. The land was built up of mud and clay deposited by two great rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates. These twin rivers come down from mountains in the north, cut southeastward through hilly grasslands, and finally cross the plain they created to reach the Persian Gulf. The land between these rivers was known as Mesopotamia, the land between the rivers. Today it is called Iraq. Tradition says that the Garden of Eden was located there. Excavations in Mesopotamia have led archaeologists and other scientists to conclude that a number of serious floods occurred there between 4000 and 2000 BCE. It is possible that one of these floods was so destructive that it made a lasting impression on the population and became a subject for the ancient literature of the period. It goes on to relate the culture and religion of that era and describe how the flood story had grown into a Myth. "In its fully developed mythical form, the Mesopotamian flood appeared in the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the first literary masterpieces, which relates the adventures of a hero-king of Sumer. The earliest versions of the epic derive from the first part of the 2nd millennium BCE. The story of the flood is told to Gilgamesh by Utnapishtim. Advised by the god Ea that his city is to be destroyed by flood, Utnapishtim is told to build a ship for his family, servants, and animals. After a seven-day flood, the vessel comes to rest on a mountaintop. The wrath of the gods has been appeased, and Utnapishtim and his wife are granted immortality. About two thousand years after the Mesopotamian flood which led to the writing of The Epic of Gilgamesh, the story was brought to Canaan, the land where the Israelites settled, from Mesopotamia to the Hebrews where they created their own apocalyptic, flood story, through the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The flood tale was reshaped around the eighth or ninth century BCE by Hebrew writers into a narrative about GOD and his purposes for mankind. In this Hebrew version, it is the whole Earth that is to be flooded. Only Noah, his family, and the animals he collects are to be saved. The flooding lasts 40 days, and afterward Noah's Ark settles on top of a mountain."

Given these facts before us, one has to really question the total validity of the Bible. A person would have to be pretty stupid to ignore what has been revealed. But that is where Camping and members of his ministry are at. So when Camping says that any people who say otherwise from what is written in the Bible, these people are ignorant of the Bible. Well we all know now who is the one that is ignorant. Huh, Mr. Camping?

Note; Encyclopedia Britannica has a reputation to uphold, so what they print in their Encyclopedias, has to be factual. I too look to where the truth is, but unlike the people at Encyclopedia Britannica, I am of no great importance and therefore I have only truth to uphold any reputation that I may have, if any. Jean

Camping was telling his students in his Bible class that the fictitious, man-made god, they read in their Bible, Je-Zeus Christ is Jehovah GOD. Then he goes on to read that this Je-Zeus Christ (Jehovah GOD) is the begotten son of GOD. He goes on to read that this Je-Zeus Christ (Jehovah GOD) prays to GOD. Yet statements like these that Camping is reading just seem to pass over his and his bible students heads. What this should show people is how Camping and his people have allowed themselves to be thoroughly duped into believing such a ridiculous concept as being true, despite that it reads in John 20; 17 where Yeshua says; "Touch me not: for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my GOD and your GOD. Need I say more? So what do we make of statement like these? On the one hand, in the "Bible" that is supposed to be the inerrant "Word of GOD", it claims that the fictitious, man-made god, Je-Zeus Christ is GOD in a few passages, and then throughout the rest of the New Testament it speaks of this fictitious, man-made god, Je-Zeus Christ is praying to or ascending to GOD or sitting on the right hand side of GOD. Saying nothing that he was to have said from his very own mouth, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my GOD and your GOD. The vast majority of Christians claim that within the Trinity, there are three gods. A god who is the father, a god who is Je-Zeus Christ, and a god who is the holy spirit. All of these three gods somehow is the "one" god. Common sense and reason will tell you that Christianity is a Baal worshipping, polytheistic religion with its many gods. I will not go into this any further because I have gone through this matter quite extensively throughout our web pages.

Camping had said to his bible students that GOD had put in contradictions, lies and fallacies into the bible to confuse people. So that people who are in rebellion of GOD would not understand. Well; Camping got it partly right. Given that there are thousands of Christian denominations, from the Roman Catholic church, which is the largest with millions of Baal worshippers, to the smallest Protestant church with only a dozen members in a rented room, all giving different interpretations on the same bible text they are reading. Christianity is indeed one of the most confused religions of the world. A real mystery religion, Mystery Babylon, that is.

___________________________________________________________________________

While I sat listening to Camping's preaching, I notice that he uses a great deal of allegory during his reading of text in the bible. He uses these allegorical methods a great deal to interpret and explain scriptures to his bible students. While doing so, Camping will readily put things out of context and say outlandish things that are not what the text is saying or referring to. An example of this is when he makes the claim that all the text that is written in the old testament, which pertains directly to GOD, Camping claims that the god it is speaking about, is the Christians phony Je-Zeus Christ. Camping uses this method to twist the scriptures in order to conform to the idea that this phony Je-Zeus Christ of the Christians, is the god of the bible. In other words, the Je-Zeus Christ of the Christians, is GOD, the Almighty. Another thing I have noticed is that when Camping reads a verse, he will often throw in his own idea or words that are not written in the text. Therefore; What is being related to people is not quite what the verse is saying. This tactic of preaching I have observed is quite common to all Christian preachers, be they Catholic or Protestants. They use these methods to deceive and slant the truth to conform to their perverted theology in a sly and underhanded way. This method of preaching makes their followers feel entirely dependent on them in order to understand what is written in their Bible. Camping also has the strange idea that he alone knows the meaning of biblical text, the way Christians need to understand it, given the way he preaches on his radio programs. He seems to think that the Christian bible is some sort of a secret code book that he alone knows the code. For some strange reason, Camping seems to think that the Christian bible was handed down throughout the ages in a pristine state. That its text had not been tampered with, text added or altered during the time the Roman Catholic church had the gospel text in their possession for nine hundred years before it was translated into the common language of the people. During that nine hundred year time-span, the Roman Catholic Church had compiled, altered the gospel text to conform to their way of thinking and became the hand written Christian Bible that Priests would use. Camping and his fellow Protestant preachers tend to forget that their brand of Christianity, that of Protestantism, had originally come out from Catholicism. It was only during the 15-16th century, when people like Erasmus, who was one of the forerunners of the Reformation, who had laid the egg that Martin Luther would later hatch. Erasmus wrote a satire called, The Praise of Folly, which he attacked certain abuses that had developed within the Roman Catholic Church. Another famous work he had written was, The Handbook of the Christian Soldier, where he urged people not to accept the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, but go directly to the now Christian Bible and to work out its meaning by themselves. Later, Erasmus had withdrew from the ranks of the reformers and returned to be a faithful, docile, Roman Catholic. Other people, particularly the Germans Melanchton and Ulrich von Hutten, carried on the fight against the authority of the Roman Catholic Church. In the early days of Protestantism, people abandoned the principles of freedom for themselves, but also denied it to others. Such a man was John Calvin (1509-64 CE) who was a French Protestant, who had become the religious leader of Geneva, Switzerland. He had ruled with a hand of iron and did not hesitate to burn anyone at the stake because they did not share Calvin's religious beliefs. Later would come John Huss, a Czech theologian who was a popular preacher but was condemned to death and executed for heresy by the Roman Catholic Church. Then the theologian and reformer, Martin Luther, an Augustinian monk came onto the scene and continued the Reformation within the Roman Catholic Church. On Oct. 31, 1517 he would nail on the door of the ducal chapel at Wittenberg a scroll setting forth ninety-five theses or statements which he declared himself to defend. Martin Luther was forced to separate himself from the Roman Catholic Church and Catholicism in order to save his life. With the advent of the printing press, where do Protestants think the reformers got their text to print the Bible? They got it from the only source they were able to get it from, the Roman Catholic Church Bible. From these sources came the Christian bible we have today. Regardless what version it may be. I know Protestants will say that the King James Bible was made from Hebrew or Greek text. Where do they think they got those from? Again, these were obtained from the Vatican library, which these text had been altered hundreds of years ago. Therefore; To Camping way of thinking, he do not want to know what had transpired before his earthly existence, and thus falsely believes that the Bible he now has is the pristine, totally inerrant and infallible "Word of GOD". The way Camping talks, one would think that the Bible came down directly from GOD, binding, pages, cover and all. Camping seems to think that the "Bible" itself had been written by the hand of GOD, with all the contradictions, lies and fallacies. Oh; I almost forgot. Camping did say that GOD had done that deliberately to confuse people. Given the tunnel vision Camping and a great many of his fellow Protestant preachers have on this whole matter, it is no great wonder why he refuses to look beyond the pages of the Bible to check if what he is reading is in fact true.

I would not at all be surprised that Harold Camping is brewing quite a storm among his fellow Christian preachers because of what he his preaching. Camping is saying that the church age which ran for 1,900 years is now over. That the Christian church as an organized entity, made up of various churches and denominations, has come to an end. Camping is also telling people that the time of tribulation has already begun. I am sure his fellow Christians do not like to hear this bit of news. So Camping is saying that their fictitious god, Je-Zeus Christ, is through with the churches and Christians should get out from their local churches. I wonder where Camping got that idea? Well; Camping got it partly right in a way. In the first place; The true congregation of Yeshua, (What Christian call the "Church Age") had ended during the early development of Christianity. During the time when the pagan gentiles had supplanted the original Apostles mandate and created for themselves their own god from the model of Yeshua, then applied his teachings, with a few modifications, here and there, so that it reflects their heathen dogma, they could now call Christianity, this non-Jew religion, their very own. Thus began the teachings of another gospel of a fictitious man-made god, Je-Zeus Christ. After the last major revolt against Rome (70-132 CE) after the Temple was destroyed, and the second revolt had failed, this was a time when a great many people fell away from the true path and went over to that newly formed pagan, heathen, perverse Christian religion with its man-made god. So now this will be the era (2005 CE) when Christianity shall drink the cup of GOD's wrath upon those who went by the way of the harlot. So now the time is coming when GOD, our Heavenly Father will take direct action against this perverse Christian religion and its harlot churches. This is the time, what Preachers claimed to be the "Church Age" is in reality the Judgment upon Christianity, that perverse Baal worshipping religion, who will come to know the anger of GOD for having perverted and substituted Yeshua and his teachings into their heathen religion and the creation of their man-made god. So Camping, in a sense, is correct, but not for the way he understands it. One can say that this is the beginning of the end for this Christian, heathen, Baal worshipping religion. When GOD will lay His wrath upon it. This is the reason why the warning is being called out for people to get out of these harlot churches, once the Very Elect and the elect had been called out, the rest of the people, who may be innocent victims, who are wanting to re-connect with their Heavenly Father, may not be condemned with the Baal worshippers. Camping, and other Christians, were wrong when they claimed that the true "Church Age" had ended only recently. Or that the Holy Spirit had moved among the Christian churches for the past 1,900 years. That statement is an outright lie. The Holy Spirit was never involved with any of these Baal worship Christian churches. Not even during its very conception, nor was the Holy Spirit among the Christian churches over the past centuries to our present era. The truth of the matter is; Christianity is a perverse, heathen religion right from its very conception, when they first had broken away from the true path. Nor was the Holy Spirit ever involved with any of those so-called Christian "Revivals" that Christians had perused. These Christians were just running on their own emotions, on their own steam, so to speak, believing in their own delusion that they had received some kind of mystic experience. This was the depth of their own deception. Those of the clergy who had claimed to be of religious authority as teachers or preachers, who had the intelligence, the where-with-all to find and obtain the truth, but choose not to, will be dealt with severely in the sight of the true, Almighty GOD. These Christians, these Baal worshippers, who had spent their whole life deceiving people shall their soul/spirit be consumed to everlasting death. Camping had claimed that his phony, man-made god, Je-Zeus Christ would return to earth on September 6, 1994. He even published a book on it. During the time of Camping's prediction, he claimed with an air of authority, that he knew what he speaks of, and that his careful calculations, with the help of Scriptures, were correct. After all, he pressed home the fact that he has fifty years under his belt studying the Bible. Come to think of it, do you not find it strange that Camping had claimed that his fictitious god, Je-Zeus Christ was coming back to meet his bride, "the church", in 1994 and after only a few short years later, he is now claiming that this same Je-Zeus Christ is now finished, done with these Christian churches, and that Christians should get out from their local churches because it is a den of thieves and Satan inhabits them all. I really need to ask the question; What happened in the interim, between the span of time from 1994-2004 CE for this drastic change? Did I miss something? I know that some people may think I am being sarcastic, but this obvious gross error on Camping's part was just too good to pass up. I also remember on a more recent broadcast, Camping had stated that the churches had began its slide of decline, corruption and perversion in 1959 CE, and has continued its decline to our present era. Camping is wrong on this point also. For up to that time, Christianity had gained and reached its highest numbers of worshippers. Then in 1959 to our present era, people had slowly departed from the religion of Christianity and looked elsewhere for their Spirituality. This should give anyone some idea of Camping's credibility when it comes to knowing the things of GOD. I was also wondering what church is this phony god going to go to? Given that there are hundreds of thousands of individual Christian churches of various denominations, all with a wide verity of differing dogmas and teachings, located all around the world, and each one claiming to be the only true bride of this fictitious god, Je-Zeus Christ. I would think he would have a hard time to find the right bride, don't you think so? I suppose one thing makes a bit of sense in this whole madness of the Christian religion, that a phony, man-made god is going to a church that is made up of a phony, man-made religion. It seems to me that this would be an ideal, perfect match. Looking back when Camping made that bold claim about the return of his Je-Zeus Christ, in 1994, was Camping saying, upon reflection, that his fictitious god was coming down to a bunch of harlots that is nothing more than a perverted, corrupt church? Hummmmm! Camping claimed that the Christian "church" or better yet, Christianity, had only started to become perverted and corrupt in 1995 CE. I think not. One has only to look at the "Tine Line of Christianity" found at our Archive Page to know the true facts. Camping, like a great many other Christian preachers, and false prophets, seen to act like they are an authority on the Bible, in how it had developed or evolved over time when in truth, given what I have been hearing from these people, are nothing but unskilled amateurs when it comes to knowing the Bible and how to interpret it correctly. Now Camping claims with as much authority, that the world will come to an end in 2011 CE. He even wrote a book titled " Time has an End" to prove his point, which he expects will be in bookstores all across America very soon. I can safely tell you right now that Camping is dead wrong with that date and you would only be throwing away good money for something that belong in the trash. Once again Camping will be proven wrong and reveal the man's ineptness. Other Christian preacher claim that this phony, man-made god, Je-Zeus Christ, will return to earth in 2011 CE. They will also be proven wrong for reasons that should be quite obvious by now. Camping may be a very smart man when it comes to wheeling and dealing. To set up a radio ministry and build a broadcast empire for himself, but when it comes to the Bible and things pertaining to GOD, he is not only ignorant of the facts, but frankly, quite stupid, for a person who has devoted most of his life to it. I have seen young people who have a better understanding and give far better interpretations on Bible text than what I am hearing from Camping. But what can you expect from a person who has not the wisdom to realize that he and his students are as much a part of the Baal worshippers, even if they are no longer involved in a church, as is their fellow Christians. Camping, along with other Christians, be they Priests, Pastors or false prophets have for a long while accused me of being ignorant on the Bible. My only interest here is to dispel any of Camping's claim and expose who is truly ignorant of not only the Bible, but of its history and that of Christianity. It is interesting how these Christians pull out scripture verses about not casting the first stone, when it was they who had thrown the first barrage of stones my way. Hypocrites! Never-the-less, I await to hear what other nonsense sayings that comes out of Camping's mouth through his broadcasts. So far, I have yet to hear a good argument to substantiate any of his claims. Need I go on to show how ignorant you really are, Mr. Harold Camping?

Unlike the Bible, the Holy Testament text can not be altered by those without authority. For there will always be a copy of the Holy Testament on our web site for people to download while people exist on this old planet Earth.

Note; [ For nineteen hundred years the Roman Catholic Church had done everything to separate itself from any kind of "Jewish roots". After all, their true roots stem from gentile, heathen Roman roots. It is only in very recent times that the Roman Catholic Church is trying to re- establishing itself to "Jewish roots" in order to lend credibility to its false claims that it represents the true, original congregation of Yeshua.
